Sorry guys , but both are reproductions .
The chest feather pattern on the Wagner eagle is the best clue here , plus mistakes on reverse .
The Deschler is an adapted " moustache " fake .
These would have best stayed in the Ukrain ..

Wow, thanks for the info mate, I really thought these two looked good! This is why I'd always run an item by the forum before I parted with cash, great stuff boys.

Thanks for the comments and pics, but can you clarify what you mean by "moustache"?

I did think the top "lip" of the skull wasn't as well defined as original examples, but other than that I thought this looked OK
